Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of this article argues that the Asian experience in state-influenced fertility transition is characterized best by regularity and duress. Both qualities are transferable. Regularity is the preferred path, but it is also the more demanding. Regularity may not be marketable as policy in this age of programmatic emphasis, but the practical benefits spread beyond the population sphere. Regularity is achieved by authoritarian governments with co-opted village leadership or social systems with a high degree of local self-government and a fairly liberal population. State authority typically replaces those of kin and community with a nuclear family identity. State authority generates familiar social and economic forces that depress fertility. Regularity is conducive to economic growth. The state influence of duress is the use of political, administrative pressure, or physical force to achieve fertility objectives. For example, authorities can mobilize the rural population behind public works projects. States can soften their influence to a harangue rather than harassment. The means include advertising campaigns, soap operas with a message, and speeches. Regularity and duress are independent features. For others to replicate Asia's fertility transition, it may require regularity and duress and a focus on the engineers, such as interior ministry officials, heads of local government, and family planning program managers. The political/administrative dimension is important for the course of fertility decline. Governance issues are discussed for Indonesia and Thailand, with exemplary family planning programs but different political histories, and contrasts in India and China.

Download or read book Fertility Transition in the Developing World written by John Bongaarts and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book provides an overview and analysis of the causes and consequences of the massive and highly consequential transition in reproductive behaviour that occurred in Asia, Latin America, and Africa since the mid-20th century. In the 1950s contraceptive use was rare and women typically spend most of their reproductive years bearing and rearing children. By 2020 fertility and contraceptive use in Asia and Latin America reached levels commonly observed in the developed world. Africa’s fertility is still high, but transitions have started in all countries. This monograph is the first to provide a comprehensive analysis of these trends and their determinants, covering changes in reproductive behaviour (e.g., use of contraception and abortion), preferences (e.g., desire to limit and space births) and the role of socioeconomic development (e.g., education). The role of government policies and in particular family planning programs is discussed in depth. Particular attention is given to provide a balanced assessment of several political and scientific controversies that have beset the field. As such this book provides an interesting read for a wide audience of undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and public health policy makers.

Download or read book Recent Fertility Trends in Sub-Saharan Africa written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2016-03-18 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fertility rates and population growth influence economic development. The marked declines in fertility seen in some developing nations have been accompanied by slowing population growth, which in turn provided a window of opportunity for rapid economic growth. For many sub-Saharan African nations, this window has not yet opened because fertility rates have not declined as rapidly there as elsewhere. Fertility rates in many sub-Saharan African countries are high: the total rate for the region is estimated to be 5.1 births per woman, and rates that had begun to decline in many countries in the region have stalled. High rates of fertility in these countries are likely to contribute to continued rapid population growth: the United Nations projects that the region's population will increase by 1.2 billion by 2050, the highest growth among the regions for which there are projections. In June 2015, the Committee on Population organized a workshop to explore fertility trends and the factors that have influenced them. The workshop committee was asked to explore history and trends related to fertility, proximate determinants and other influences, the status and impact of family planning programs, and prospects for further reducing fertility rates. This study will help donors, researchers, and policy makers better understand the factors that may explain the slow pace of fertility decline in this region, and develop methods to improve family planning in sub-Saharan Africa.

Download or read book Fertility, Family Planning and Population Policy in China written by Chiung-Fang Chang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-12-16 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China's one-child population policy, first initiated in 1979, has had an enormous effect on the country’s development. By reducing its fertility in the past two decades to less than two children per woman, and developing a family planning program focused heavily on sterilization and abortion, China has undergone a significant transition in status to a demographically developed country. Bringing together contributions from leading academics, this book looks at the impact of the government's strict control over planning and population growth on the family, the wider society and the country's demography. The contributors examine developments such as family planning policy and contraceptive use, biological and social determinants of fertility, patterns of family and marriage and China's future population trends. As such it will be essential reading for academics, researchers, policy makers and government officials with an interest in China’s population policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Germany, like many developed countries, is in what some refer to as Stage 5 of the Demographic Transition Model. In fact, this country is one of the first with an active shrinking population, despite its large numbers of immigrants each year. In 2007, Germany passed a series of parental friendly laws through the Parental Allowance and Parental Leave Act. These laws were clearly enacted to encourage its citizens to have more children and increase fertility rates. Are economic incentives enough to promote fertility in a country? This research explores these issues through the lens of population trends in Germany by analyzing state level statistics, cultural and social factors, policy making, and immigration. Further, four research objectives guide the study: 1) What are potential variables impacting crude birth rates in Germany; 2) Which German cultural and social values affect family planning; 3) How has the implementation of government family planning policies affected both historical and contemporary population trends; and 4) How have immigrants shaped Germany's modern population? This study reveals that social and cultural trends have an indirect impact on Germany's continued low fertility rates, and that these trends are not considered to a full extent in Germany's political family policies.

Download or read book Africa's Population: In Search of a Demographic Dividend written by Hans Groth and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-23 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the promises as well as the challenges the demographic dividend brings to sub-Saharan Africa as fertility rates in the region fall and the labor force grows. It offers a detailed analysis of what conditions must be met in order for the region to take full economic advantage of ongoing population dynamics. As the book makes clear, the region will need to accelerate reforms to cope with its demographic transition, in particular the decline of fertility. The continent will need to foster human capital formation through renewed efforts in the areas of education, health and employment. This will entail a true vision and determination on the part of African leaders and their development partners. The book will help readers to gain solid knowledge of the demographic trends and provide insights into socioeconomic policies that eventually might lead sub-Saharan Africa into a successful future.

Download or read book The Continuing Demographic Transition written by G. W. Jones and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1998-01-29 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the perspective of human society, one of the most significant occurrences of the twentieth century has been the demographic transition —- the movement from tragic and wastefully high death and birth rates to low rates in many countries. Many other countries, however, are still at only the early or intermediate stages of this process. In these countries, means need to be found to accelerate the transition. This book brings new evidence to bear on aspects of the demographic trasition, with contributions from leading demographers, anthropologists, sociologists, and historians. The book ranges widely over the history and current experience of both developed and developing countries, with particular emphasis on Asia and Africa. The new field of anthropological demography is strongly represented, with contributions challenging much conventional wisdom.
